      Oh. They have mountains of talent. And they have had years and years to develop their sound. But "great songs". I know it is hard to believe but this band is an acquired taste.
      THis video is excellent BTW. I am glad Rick found a reason to make a vid about such an interesting band.

    • @drumkidstu
      @drumkidstu 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hopefully you'll see this. I can give you a rundown to a degree. Harmonically their music is rather simple, but it utilizes symmetrical scales. Diminished, half half half whole, whole tone, and chromatic scales. They occasionally write riffs based off other more consonant scales, but the basis of their harmony comes from the diminished scale.

    @LuisSilva-ly4ni 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Meshuggah is, without doubt, the best metal band around for some large years. Their influence started the Djent movement. Before that there was only Meshuggah. People say that they use polyrhythms and odd signatures, WRONG!!! The play 99% every time in 4/4, they just ignore the bar and the down/upbeat usual structure, because what they do is simply rhythmic lines that are continuous until the fourth 4/4 bar, and REPEAT. That 4 bar cycle makes the rhythmic structure give a "boom" in the beginning of the next 4 bar section. They also incorporate very jazzy licks in their rhythmic lines. On top of that they produce their albums and every member contribute to compose songs. They are TOP MUSICIANS. It's not a sound for everyone, but regardless, they are so good that Rick Beato as aborded them 2 or 3 times. That says it all.

    • @flaminghead1va
      @flaminghead1va ปีที่แล้ว

      sorry to necro, but great comment. I never knew most of their songs are in 4/4. I don't listen to Meshuggah so I have no clue if what you're saying is true.

      they don't sound like any other Djent band though, Periphery, Monuments, Sikth, Tesseract all sound similar to one another and nothing like mesguhhah, so meshuggah shouldn't be considered Djent even though they arguably pioneered it.

    I personally think Rick's sound sounds quite a bit more...natural/organic than the typically hyper-produced, sterile "djent" sound. I way, way prefer this.
    Also the "this is just noise" comments are pretty funny.

    • @RohannvanRensburg
      @RohannvanRensburg 6 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      Not in reference to Meshuggah as much as other bands in the "djent" category

    • @RohannvanRensburg
      @RohannvanRensburg 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Yeah that's more what I'm referring to. Meshuggah has gone a bit more "organic" over time, but the stereotypical "djent" sound is one that is hyper-produced and waveform edited.

    • @poulwinther
      @poulwinther 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Couple of reasons for that. First of all beat correction. It just destroys any organics of the playing regardless of the tone itself. Another main reason is that Rick's tone here - no disrespect - is still way too flubby in comparison, or for anything faster tuned that low. But yes, at the amount of processing on modern guitar tones, djent will soon become just another 100% sampled style.

  • @mvunit3
    @mvunit3 6 ปีที่แล้ว +38

    This is a perfect example how, many years ago, it was either Hagstrom or Haake, talking about their music (Meshuggah circa Destroy Erase Improve), that everyone in the band _takes turns_ being a "percussive" instrument (including vocalist Jens Kidman), and that Haake would at times be the "Lead" on drums, keeping Thordendal, Hagstrom and Nordin (or Hielm, or currently, Lovgren/Bass) in time, or visa/versa. One of many reasons I have been a HUGE fan since 1995.
    Though there were many other bands doing that "Pantera-like" groove, even before Pantera, and experimenting with the palm-muted chugs/riffage (many coming from Thrash and Death Metal). But Meshuggah and Zero Hour took it to a whole 'nother level, and passed the torch to all the contemporaries and subgenres.
    Would love to see a breakdown of the track "Future Breed Machine", mostly 4/4, but what they do _within_ that 4/4 is completely insane. And Haake keeping it together with his drums, often changing from percussion to lead, and touches of Fusion (especially within Thordendal's solo).
    Thanks again Rick! You're a man of various musical knowledge \m/.

    • @MissYaBigMan
      @MissYaBigMan 6 ปีที่แล้ว +99

      You're kind of missing the point. Guitars, even at that low range, take up a different frequency range and take on a different timbral characteristic than basses. From the choice of body woods, to the pickups, to the amps, pretty much everything is different. That means that despite sitting in a similar melodic place, there is a very defined job for both the guitars and the bass, coming together to create an enormous sound neither could create on their own.
      I'd highly recommend listening to some stems from bands like Mesuggah and Periphery to hear that definition plays out.

Do not look down is written entirely on that scale. They also use the 3rd Messian mode or the half half half whole scale. The chorus of I am collosus uses this. They also use the chromatic scale. Rhythmically they base a lot of their rhythms in groupings of 1 2 and 3.

    Great video. Would love to see more on modern metal guitar tones. I really enjoy the quality of "djent" tones used by bands like Kadinja, Dali Thundering Concept, After The Burial. Such powerful tones!

    Massive sound. I also love when Opeth mixes acoustic guitars in the heavier guitar sections to widen the sound (I think The Moor and Bleak have this in their intros). I wonder if that would work on a heavier and beefier sound like this.
    Btw, today I was checking out some "tricks" that use Nashville tuning, have you ever talked about that on your videos?

      Clean guitars (usually the "Milton cleans" djent tends to have) over heavy djent riffs is pretty common in djent. Check out Tesseract, Uneven Structure or Vildhjarta.

      @@hkleider I love Tesseract, Sonder is one of my favorite albums of all time. The other two bands I have listened as well, but to a lesser extent. But clean guitars and acoustic guitars (including 12 strings and nylon classicals) are quite different, they sound different and have different roles in the mix. I like both cases, but I wish more heavy bands used actual acoustic and classical guitars.

      @@felipimacedo lol my brain switched "acoustic" with "clean" for some reason, sorry. The only other band I know that does this atmospheric blending of acoustic and heavy guitars like Opeth is Ne Obliviscaris, I also wish it was more common.

    Absolutly enjoyed the sound demonstration and being able to see the changes being made and than hear them creates a great teaching dynamic. Also the light bulb went omn for me as i never considered several different instruments playing one note only whichwhen combined than forms a Chord. cool video , Thanks

    Do you have any thoughts on Black Metal guitar sounds Rick? I don't know if it is a genre you are interested in but I think there are some fantastic guitar sounds. Pretty adventurous stuff. I'm think of Ulver's "Nattens Madrigal", not too much bottom end but an ear shredding middle and top. Not everyones taste I know but compelling stuff nonetheless

    Super late to the party on this video but on the studio rat HQ TH-cam channel a couple of years ago they were talking about how they recorded a lot of the bands at Indigo Ranch, what are the things they said they did for Bands That Tune really low especially with the second Korn record was blend the sound of the mic Half Stack with a small practice amp something like an 8 or 6 inch speaker and slowly faded up in the mix
